Any doubts about whether Barcelona were going off the boil were well and truly dissipated after a 6-1 victory over Zaragoza on Sunday evening. Keita and Ibrahimovic scored the opening goals in the first half hour, and the two combined to set each other up for two more either side of half time. Jorge López got one back for the visitors, but Messi lobbed Carrizo for a fifth, and Keita completed his hat-trick near the end. Guardiola's side are now three points clear of Madrid at the top of the table.
